Restaurant Bollard Applications

Whether you’re building a restaurant or already have one, ensuring the safety of your investment and diners is crucial. Bollards for restaurants are durable barriers that help secure your property from wayward vehicles. They serve as visible deterrents to cars and enhance traffic management, enabling you to run your business with peace of mind.

Benefits and Uses of Bollards for Restaurants

Bollards provide clear guidance for cars and pedestrians along the sides and close to the entryways of your restaurant. See how they enhance protection for various restaurants, from sit-in eateries to drive-thrus:

• Manages traffic flow: Bollards help with traffic control in drive-thrus and parking lots. Their highly visible design directs vehicles where to drive and park in drive-thrus, improving traffic flow.
• Protects patrons and the restaurant: Bollards can protect patrons, staff and the restaurant itself from crashes. In the case of an accident, the strength of crash-rated bollards, along with their verticle shape, helps push the vehicle upwards instead of impacting any objects directly in its path.
• Enhances safety and security: Use bollards for drive-thrus and for any type of restaurant to improve and manage traffic flow and safety. Bollards help prevent and control congestion and improve security, making visiting your restaurant a pleasant experience for guests.

Types of Bollards for Restaurant Security

Here at Blockaides, we offer various types of bollards to suit your restaurant’s requirements. Some provide permanent solutions, while others offer more flexibility. If aesthetic appeal is an important factor, the bollard material should also be considered. Browse our different types of bollards:

Automatic Retractible Bollards

With automatic bollards, you have the freedom to lower and raise the bollards whenever you need to. Your restaurant can benefit from both secure, controlled traffic movement and lowered bollards. Since they are available in various mounting options, you can find a solution that fits your requirements.

Removable Bollards

If you need versatility and a less permanent option, removable bollards provide easier detachment and portability. They’re not permanently fixed to the ground and provide durable protection when you need to manage traffic flow in different areas frequently.

Fixed Bollards

Fixed bollards are ideal for permanent solutions. We provide various fixed bollard designs, like Kitchener, Bishop, Dome and Flat. Sturdy and secure, these bollards will protect pedestrians, guests and your restaurant while maintaining the style of your property.

Our surface-mounted bollards can also be installed on existing surfaces, even shallow cement.

Material and Design Considerations

The design and material you choose will depend on your unique needs. We provide restaurant bollards in steel, stainless steel and aluminum, and with different design options. Steel varieties provide highly secure installations and are good choices if you want more permanent bollards with robust performance.

If you need applications that are more flexible or that offer added aesthetic value, aluminum bollards are ideal. They’re lighter and easier to move around while being compatible with different finishing options.
